I was scared…. Yes scared because Night was known to be ruthless. It was rumored that the disappearance of his elder brother and the death of his emperor’s concubine was related to him. There was no telling what would he do with me so I ran. I always wanted a carefree life and with him I knew I would not have it.“ Earth to Sandra!” I was snapped back to present by john snapping his fingers in front of me.“ Y….yes” I asked“ Where have you been lost?” John asked“ i…..i was just thinking about who attacked us” I liedJohn looked worried and hesitantly asked “ do you have any idea?”I nodded and he expressions on his face turned from worried to scared...Ancient timesNight’s POVThe morning I woke up and saw my beautiful wife sleeping next to me peacefully. I sometimes wonder how can she looks so innocent while sleeping but so fierce when awake. Subconsciously my eyes drifted towards my hand which was tangled with hers as a huge smile made it’s way on my face.I gently detangled o
As everyone was done eating tea was served and after tea the King spoke“ As you all know this feast was held in honor of my getting married so as per tradition let’s welcome his wife”Everyone stood up except for the King and Queen off course and started greeting them and giving them gifts. As one goes another comes and repeat the same words the previous one spoke.Sandra was getting bored. Back in her world she always hated feasts or banquets because no matter how hard she tried not to but she would be the center of attention which she hates the most. Still Sandra was trying to be as polite as she could.As everyone was done that is when the man who had no woman beside him stood up ad Sandra felt Night tensing up. Why was he tensed up suddenly?He man approached us and spoke“ Greetings sister in law.”Before I could reply Night spoke “ How is elder brother doing?”Sandra eyes widened. This man was Night’s elder brother who tried to kill him. Shade glared at Night. Hate was drippi
Shade was in walking in front of me while I was walking behind him keeping a safe distance. I understood his hate towards Night but that didn’t mean i trust him. And the constant feeling of someone watching me was not helping either. I wasn’t afraid but was confused. I knew someone was following us but the question is why? Was this Shade’s man? If he is then what is he planning? Wouldn’t it be foolish of him to hurt me in anyway considering the fact the would be punished after it.“ Is Night treating you right?” I was startled by shade’s sudden question. “ excuse me?” I questioned“ I don’t repeat myself” Shade said. how rude!“ I believe that is none of your concerns” I replied in the same tone he used before. he stopped and turned. “ Answer me while I am asking politely” the threat in his voice was clear but I don’t give a shit. Who does he think he is to ask about the relation between me and my hus….i mean Night.“ With all due respect I won’t because it’s none of your concerns.
I quickly took out the horn Night gave me in case something goes happens and blew it.“ what are you doing?” Shade asked“ calling for help” I said and threw the horn away and pulled out my whip which Night made me hid inside my clothes in case something goes wrong.“ You know how to use that?” shade asked confused. That is when another arrow came towards him. I quickly used the whip to catch it before it hit Shade making his eyes wide.Suddenly 1 dozen men stepped out of no where wearing black clothes and their faces were covered with black masks“ I know a lot of things now get ready” I said and charged towards the men.I used my whip to stop the attacks they attempted with arrows and used my Kung fu skills to beat them while shade just fought with his swordThese assassins were well trained because they moves used were quiet polished but I still managed to knocked 4 of them out of consciousnessSuddenly I heard Shade grown in pain and my eyes went towards him. His sword was taken
Whatever I am not gonna spare their lives. I was about to ran after them when they both were shot down by an arrow. I turned and saw 2 dozen guards along with Night. Behind them were standing King and queen and other officials.Seeing me drenched in blood Night ran towards me“ Enola! Are you okay?” he asked concern dripping down his voice.That is when we heard painful cries of Shade.Without a second thought we ran towards him.Shade was sweating and looked pale. my eyes drifted towards his wound and saw his blood was deep red almost black instead of red.“The arrow is poisoned” I said and looked at Night. He was shocked and got paralyzed. I knew he loves Shade more than himself and his brain is too numb to process anything.“ Call the imperial doctor” The King yelled but I knew he didn’t had time.I need to get the poison out of his system.(Note: I have no idea about medical processes like this. This is just my imagination. Don’t act upon the basis of what I write here. In such
“ don’t you dare walk away from me” I said and immediately regretted saying so because he without any reply walked away. I mean who do I think I am? I can’t do anything even if he chooses to walk away. I am helplessI started walking to once again god knows where because I still don’t know this damn mansion. “ Mrs Black” I heard a maid calling me telling that Mr Black told her to help me back to room.I sneered but didn’t protest. Reaching the room i noticed John wasn’t there. Like I careI walked upto the table where I remember placing the file containing the information that John refuse to tell me and that damn clock but my eyes literally popped out when I only found the clock there and no sign of the file.I quickly turned and asked the maid “ did John came in this room before me?”The maid only nodded and my blood boiled in anger. I quickly dismissed the maid knowing I will vent my ager on her if she stays here. In my entire life no one has made me this angry not even Night but
I bent down attempting to touch it but before I could I heard someone calling “ Sandra!”My eyes shot open and groaned. I rubbed my eyes and internally screamed “Can’t these freaking dreams last for little longer for God’s sake!”“ are you okay Sandra?” I removed my hands from my eyes looked saw Bella standing in front of me.I sighed and sat up. “ yeah I am just a little tired”Bella came and sat beside me. “I heard about the accident and immediately rushed here by the way where is John?” She askedAt the bottom of hell I wish. I thought“ I don’t know” I simply replied. She frowned at my reaction“ did something happened?” she asked“ Your brother is an literal asshole!” I replied getting up“ tell me something I don’t know” Bella said making me smile.“ he is……weird! He doesn’t communicate with me and is moody. I just can’t seem to handle his childish behavior” I complained“ what did he do?” Bella askedSo I told her everything that happened in last 48 hours and to say she was pi
I was groaning due to the pain and forced my tears back. Night just lightly soothed my back in attempt of helping me which sort of helped. Once I was a little clam he pulled me into a hug.“ are you out of your mind? How could you risk your life like that? the poison almost killed you! Can you imagine what hell I went through these 3 days of your unconsciousness? “ Night words were clearly for a scolding but his tone was rather whisper mixed with tears.I had been unconsciousness for 3 days? I patted Night back trying to calm him.Slowly he pulled away and my heart twitched seeing fresh tears scrolling down his cheeks. i quickly wiped away his tears with my thumbs.“ don’t ever pull such stunt for anyone! Nor shade nor mother not for me even!” he beggedHe looked so worried which made me smile. I wanted to nod but I didn’t. if I had to risk myself for him for someone he loves then I would without hesitating because…..because I have fallen for him. I would risk myself for him and for
